      Containers and OpenStack: here's what you need to know
      <http://superuser.openstack.org/articles/containers-and-openstack-here-s-what-you-need-to-know>

Interview with Adrian Otto, a principal architect at Rackspace, is the
project technical lead (PTL) for Magnum, an API service developed by the
OpenStack containers team for OpenStack to make container management
tools such as Docker and Kubernetes available as first-class resources
in OpenStack. Magnum officially joined the OpenStack project list upon
approval by a unanimous vote by the Technical Committee in March 2015.


      What building Legos can teach you about open source
      <http://superuser.openstack.org/articles/what-building-legos-can-teach-you-about-open-source>

If you want to build a gas station next to a children’s playground,
fireworks are pretty much guaranteed. That not-in-my-neighborhood
face-off was one of the issues hashed out in a recent OpenStack Upstream
Training <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/OpenStack_Upstream_Training>
session where about 50 participants split into teams building Lego sets.


      Travel grants bring global community members to OpenStack Summit
      <http://superuser.openstack.org/articles/travel-grants-bring-global-community-members-to-openstack-summit>

Turns out there's nothing like working together in person to push a
cloud project forward. To help make that valuable face time happen, the
OpenStack Foundation funded the travel and hotel accommodations for 21
men and 7 women who are key contributors to attend the OpenStack Summit
Vancouver.


      Neutron RFE Process
      <http://blog.siliconloons.com/posts/2015-06-01-new-neutron-rfe-process/>

Starting with the development of the Juno release, the Neutron project
moved to using a specs repository
<http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/neutron-specs/> similar to how
other projects were using them. Kyle Mestery, Neutron's PTL, reflects on
the fact that the process at best, lengthened the pipeline we had in
place to gate the incoming feature fire-hose. At worst, it turned off
potential committers. Neutron's team is implementing a new process meant
to allow users to express their desires for new features using Launchpad.
